    Briggs to fight Tua on april 1st

    Comebacking former linear heavyweight champion Shannon "Brooklyn" Briggs, 45-4-1 (39 KOs), was asking for it for a long time…and now he’s got it: a nationally televised fight with a big-name contender. On Saturday, April 1, at the Mohegan Sun Hotel Casino in Uncasville, CT, CKrush Entertainment and Cedric Kushner will present Briggs squaring off with anvil-fisted former world title challenger David “Tuaman” Tua, 44-3-1 (38 KOs) as part of a free preview weekend on the SHOWTIME network. “I'm so hungry for a big fight; I've never wanted it as bad as I do now. I know Tua is tough, but I'm looking for a tough fight. Tua comes straight at you and that's what I like. I'm ready to go to war,” said a happy Briggs. “I'm the most exciting and active heavyweight in the sport today and on April 1; I'll prove I'm the best. Tua is going down!” Currently rated WBC #8, WBO #10 and IBF #13, Briggs is riding the momentum of a nine-fight knockout streak. Tua has been on the comeback trail as well, this fight will be just his third in almost three years. Briggs’ postponed and rescheduled fight against Chris “Special K” Koval for the NABA and USBA Heavyweight Championships is now postponed again. “Koval isn't off the hook, he's just getting a stay of execution. I want to go back and knock him out after I knock out Tua. I'm thankful to Showtime for this opportunity. I'm going to put on a great show and give the fans a fight worth watching.”

      You may be right about the outcome of the fight, but as you said, Briggs gotta glass jaw AND Im not so sure he has the stamina nor skill to keep Tua off of him for 12 rounds.

            straight up 200 million bet win or lose.

            Not that tua knocks him out in 3 rounds....thats just what I think.

            Plus you would have to give me crazy odds for that.

                  If Tua has the energy to even throw it.

                    As much as I love watching Tua fight - Hes finished now, His last fight was really awful, he won a split decision against a nobody.
